2012 Giro d'Italia: Changes to Final Stage in Milano

RCS Sport, organizers of the Giro d'Italia, has agreed to modify the time trial course in Milano of the final stage at the request of the city government. May 27th is a car free Sunday and the original course conflicted with public transportation alternatives.

The key points of the stage, however, will not be hurt and the length and grade will remain the same. The start will be as announced in Piazza Castello and the finish in the magnificent Piazza del Duomo.
